Budeshi is an initiative within Nigeria’s Public and Private Development Centre that aims to make government contracting information more transparent. It does this by linking budget and procurement data to provision of public services and structuring the data, using the Open Contracting Data Standard, so that it can be visualized, searched, compared, and used. Budeshi’s work responds to the need for open, coherent, and useable data to enable better tracking of public finance for projects in the country.
